Frame 1: Standing with Dwyn in her kitchen, Star Boy stares cross-eyed in the general direction of his stomach, having just eaten a rock. “It doesn't taste good like apples,” he observes. “No, it wouldn't,” Dwyn agrees, watching with keen interest. “Any other observations?” “It kinda feels like it's just sitting there.” Frame 2: “Hmm,” Dwyn says. “Very interesting. I'll make a note to check in about it later.” “Then you're going back to your tinkering?” Star Boy asks, looking a little disappointed. “Yes,” Dwyn says. “Science doesn't do itself!” Frame 3: Time break. “See you after work!” Dwyn says, walking past Star Boy watching Draconic Orb Zed on the TV. But Star Boy isn't watching the show; he's peeking over the back of the couch, watching as Dwyn leaves. Frame 4: Outside the basement stairs, we see a rainbow as Star Boy fwooshes into the sky. Frame 5: Wearing a baseball cap balanced on the point of his head, Star Boy fwooshes down on a rainbow, landing on Zephyr's balcony. Frame 6: “Zephyr!” Star Boy calls, standing by the table surrounded by beanbag chairs, Zephyr's creepy wardrobe lurking in the background. “I'm here for adventures!” Frame 7: “Zephyr...?” Star Boy asks, searching over by the wardrobe and hat rack with the bowler. “Maybe they aren't home today.” The cat Your Gracious Majesty is lurking on top of the wardrobe. Frame 8: “Huh,” Star Boy says, the wardrobe catching his eye as he turns around. “I wonder why Zephyr told me not to open the wardrobe. Surely one little peek couldn't hurt.” The cat watches from atop the wardrobe.

Frame 1: Dwyn descends the stairs into her basement home, saying over her shoulder to Star Boy, “I'll need to make them more stable first. The important part right now is that the theory works.” Frame 2: Inside, putting the device on a table, Dwyn says to Star Boy, “I still wish there was a way to outright store the energy you produce. For now, direct conversion will have to be enough.” Frame 3: Star Boy goes to the kitchen and starts eating from a bowl of apples. “Are you feeling more tired than usual?” Dwyn asks from off screen. “No,” Star Boy replies, “Just hungrier than usual.” Frame 4: “You eat a lot of apples,” Dwyn says, joining Star Boy in the kitchen. “Do you actually need the nutrients from them?” “I don't know. Why?” “Just curious.” Frame 5: “I've been wondering what would happen if you ate a rock,” Dwyn says, proffering a rock. “... A rock?” Star Boy asks. “Yes,” Dwyn says. “Would it incinerate? Would it sustain you longer? Would it have no impact?” Frame 6: “I guess there's no harm in trying,” Star boy says, taking the rock while Dwyn watches with interest. Frame 7: Star Boy slowly opens his mouth to eat the rock while Dwyn continues to watch. Frame 8: Star Boy stares cross-eyed in the general direction of his stomach, which gurgles. “Well?” Dwyn asks, still watching with interest.

Frame 1: Star Boy and Dwyn stand by a table featuring a device with a cuff connected by wires to some type of controller and a couple of oblong shapes. Dwyn explains, “It's just a transistor, though I suppose it could also be called a transducer... You know what? It'll be easier to show you. Let's bring it outside. I need to test if it actually works, anyway.” Frame 2: Standing outside Dwyn's house, Star Boy wears the cuff, which is attached by a wire to the controller on Dwyn's belt, which in turn has wires to the oblongs on her feet. “Alright,” Dwyn says, “Time to switch it on. If I did everything right...” Frame 3: Dwyn's hair becomes yellow and spiky as yellow beams from the oblongs on her feet lift her into the air. “W-woah!” she says. “You're flying!” Star Boy says, looking surprised and delighted. Frame 4: “Yes, but...” Dwyn says, suddenly closer to an alarmed Star Boy. “It's harder to control than I expected... This might take some practice.” Frame 5: Dwyn flies back the other way, saying, “Easy does it...! Aaaand ease off the power...” Star Boy watches in admiration. Frame 6: “Wow!” Dwyn says, on the ground again. “That was even more fun than I expected!” Frame 7: “That was really cool, but Dwyn...” Star Boy says as Dwyn fixes her hair that has the yellow fading out of it. “How does making YOU fly help ME get off Earth?” Frame 8: “It's a test for future projects!” Dwyn explains, her hair back to normal. “It has proven some of my methods for controlling your power. And, in theory, these could boost your flying power enough to escape our gravity.”

Where are you?” comes a voice from inside. “Oh, no, she's already home!” Star Boy thinks with a worried expression, then says, “I'm out here!” Frame 2: “The hat!” Star Boy thinks. “Uhm... there!” He throws the hat to the ground off to the side of the stairs just as Dwyn's head appears in the stairwell, saying, “I didn't see you on my way in. What are you doing out there?” “Oh, I, uh,” Star Boy says, “was just going for a walk.” Frame 3: “I hope you didn't go too far, or let anyone see you,” Dwyn says, arriving at the top of the stairs and folding her arms. “Of c-course not!” Star Boy says. “Okay, good,” Dwyn says. Come inside! I have something to show you.” Frame 4: Dwyn turns to go back down the stairs and notices the hat. Satr Boy notices her noticing with concern. Frame 5: “What's my hat doing out here?” Dwyn asks, squatting to puck up the hat and looking over her shoulder at Star Boy with squinty eyes. “Um, I was admiring it,” Star Boy says. “Then I got distracted and forgot it there. Sorry.” Frame 6: “Ahh, that's okay,” Dwyn says, putting on the hat and heading down the stairs, smiling but still squinting a little. “Just be more careful with it next time.” “Phew...” Star Boy thinks. “It IS a great hat, isn't it?” Dwyn says. Frame 7: Inside, Dwyn tosses the hat to the floor and shows Star Boy a device on the table featuring a cuff connected by wires to some type of controller and a couple of oblong shapes. “So, while I was at work, I finally finished this,” she says. “Shouldn't you have been working...?” Star Boy asks. Frame 8: “They don't pay me what I'm worth, anyway,” Dwyn says with a shrug. “Okay, so...” Star Boy says…

Frame 1: Zephyr and Star Boy – wearing a large white newsboy hat decorated with black pentagons with the point at the top of his head visible through the soft top of the hat – sit on beanbag chairs around a table, drinking tea. Zephyr's cat is climbing onto a vacant beanbag chair, and Zephyr's creepy wardrobe lurks in the background. “By going on adventures!” Zephyr says. “Explore shops, try on new hats.” Frame 2: “If you're very bold, you could even try making your own,” Zephyr continues. “All that is for another day, of course. Today, I'd love to hear YOUR story!” The cat extends a paw towards the teapot. Frame 3: “Oh, sure!” Star Boy says. “It all started when...” Star Boy's next speech bubble contains page 1 of this comic. The cat begins pushing the teapot. Frame 4: “Oh, wow!” Zephyr says. “And then...” Star Boy says, followed by page 11 of this comic. The cat has pushed the teapot slightly over the edge of the table. Frame 5: “Well, you were right,” Zephyr says, absentmindedly moving the teapot back onto the table before it falls. “Most people need people.” “But how do I manage that?” Star boy asks, butting his tea down. “By coming on adventures with me!” Zephyr declares. Frame 6: “Now that you know where I live, you can come visit me whenever you want,” Zephyr says, standing up. “But Dwyn...” Star Boy says. “Yes...” Zephyr says. “Normally I advocate for communication, but in this case...” Frame 7: “I think we need to gather enough evidence to prove to that scientific mind that the hats work,” Zephyr says. “Then I should probably get home before she's done work,” Star Boy says, standing up. “I heartily agree!” Zephyr says. Frame 8: Star Boy fwooshes away on a rainbow from Zephyr's balcony while the cat and Zephyr watch from inside, Zephyr saying, “Huh. Well, it's faster than the stairs.”

Star Boy hands Zephyr's cavalier hat back to them, saying, “But it looks so good on YOU!” Your Gracious Majesty, the cat, weaves between Star Boy's legs. Frame 2: “Yes,” Zephyr says, putting their hat on as Star Boy picks up the newsboy hat, “but you can't expect everything that looks good on someone else to look good on you. Everyone is unique. YOU need to find what works for YOU.” Frame 3: The cat continues to weave around Star Boy's legs as he puts on the newsboy hat and Zephyr says, “If you spend all your tome trying to look like someone else, or like someone you THINK you're supposed to look like, you're going to waste a lot of time and make yourself miserable.” Frame 4: “It's when you accept yourself as yourself and find what works for YOU that you begin to sparkle and shine,” Zephyr finishes. They point off you the kitchen, saying, “I'll go get the tea. Pray, be seated.” Frame 5: “Huh,” Star Boy says, seating himself on a beanbag chair as Zephyr and the cat head off in opposite directions. “Accept myself as myself. But, who am I?” Frame 6: “Don't worry; all of this takes time to achieve,” Zephyr says, returning with a tea pot and cups. “Some people never manage it. Some people don't want to.” Frame 7: “So, then, what hat would suit me?” Star Boy asks while Zephyr sits down with some tea on another beanbag chair. The cat returns in the background. “I have no idea!” Zephyr says. “Think how much fun it will be to experiment and find out!” Frame 8: “I think the trick will be finding one that fits your head properly,” Zephyr continues as Star Boy takes some tea. “Hats tend to be made for round heads that won't poke out the top.” “And where do I find this hat?” Star Boy asks.

It's my underhat.” “Underhat...? Star By asks. Your Gracious Magesty the cat stands up on her beanbag chair. Frame 2: The cat jumps to the floor and walks toward Star Boy, who is lifting Zephyr's hat to his head while Zephyr says, “Yes, for emergencies that might otherwise leave me hatless. For example, what if I got hit by a bus and my hat was knocked off? It would be terribly embarrassing to be deceased and without a hat. Thus I ensure that I'm always wearing a clean underhat.” Frame 3: “So, you never take your hat off? Star boy asks, lowering Zephyr's hat to his head as the cat continues to walk toward him. “Not usually,” Zephyr says. “I don't like what I look like without it.” “Why not?” Star Boy asks. Frame 4: “Because I look like this,” Zephyr says, lifting the mini top hat off their head. “Oh my stars!” Star boy says, looking quite alarmed and wearing Zephyr's cavalier hat. “You look just like all the background characters!” The cat begins walking behind him. Frame 5: “How DARE you, sir!” Zephyr says, slamming the hat back onto his head. “I still have my sparkles! Though, admittedly, most people don't deign to notice them.” The cat begins weaving around Star Boy's legs. Frame 6: “Now, about that hat...” Zephyr says, considering Star Boy. “Try grinning like me.” “Why?” Star Boy asks. “Trust me; the audience will love it.” Frame 7: “What audience?” Star boy asks, grinning like Zephyr while they both stare into your soul. Frame 8: “It's just a saying,” Zephyr says, considering Star Boy again. “Hmm... I was right. That hat just isn't you.”

Frame 2: “You have TWO rooms!?” Star Boy exclaims, glancing through a door into a bedroom. The cat is still following him. Frame 3: “And a balcony! Hi, cousin Sol!” Star Boy says, standing out on a balcony with the cat peeking through the glass doors behind him. “You must get a great view of the stars at night. I wish we had a balcony at Dwyn's place.” Frame 4: “Oh my stars!” Star Boy exclaims, jumping onto a table surrounded by beanbag chairs, staring down at the cat that has been following him. “Zephyr, watch out, there's a fierce predator in your house!” Frame 5: “What!?” Zephyr says, coming to investigate. He picks up the cat, who purrs. “Oh, ha! Predator, yes. Fierce, not so much.” Star Boy hesitantly gets down from the table. Frame 6: “This is Your Gracious Majesty,” Zephyr explains. “She's my roommate. Don't worry, she only bites squeaky toys.” “Oh. Okay,” Star Boy says. Frame 7: “You still want to try my hat on, right? We'll do that while the water is boiling. Just toss your hat on the table. Down you go, Your Gracious Majesty.” Zephyr says, and puts the cat on a beanbag chair while Star boy puts his newsboy hat on the table.

I can see where that might be a problem in your case.” Frame 2: “Maybe not no hat,” Zephyr says, stepping back and giving Star Boy finger-crossbows, “But we definitely need to find the right hat for you.” Star Boy asks, “What's wrong with my hat?” Frame 3: “There's nothing wrong with it, per se,” Zephyr says, resuming their walk. “It's more that it would suit an anime character better than you. You really need something that doesn't lose its shape upon coming in contact with your head.” Frame 4: “Maybe I should try a hat like yours?” Star Boy suggests. “Hmm...” Zephyr says thoughtfully. “I don't think it's quite right for you. But you can certainly try it on.” Frame 5: “Once we're somewhere without innocent bystanders, of course,” Zephyr says, stopping outside a large building. “Ah, here we are!” Frame 6: “Wow!” Star Boy exclaims, following Zephyr up some stairs. “Your house is huge!” “Haha!” Zephyr says. “No, the whole thing isn't mine.” Frame 7: “Only the bit behind this door,” Zephyr says, indicating a door labelled 1837. Frame 8: “Come in!” Zephyr says, leading the way into an apartment with a hat rack (holding Star Boy's white-banded black bowler) and a creepy looking wardrobe. “Make yourself at home!

Many of them are just pretending, so they can fit in and be accepted. It's a tragedy, not because there's anything wrong with being normal, but because so many people are hurting themselves so they fit the expectations of others.” Frame 3: “What makes it worse is that by pretending to be normal, they're pressuring others to be normal as well,” Zephyr continues. “So you get this endless cycle of people pretending to be normal so they can fit in with people pretending to be normal.” Frame 4: “Of course,” Zephyr says, “some of them need to pretend to be normal to feel safe. And some people live in situations where being true to themselves would put them in genuine danger. All of this leads to few people learning one of the most important lessons in life:” Frame 5: Zephyr looks over their shoulder, pointing at Star Boy. “If people don't accept you for who you really are, they aren't your people.” Frame 6: “So, if it's safe for you to do so, be yourself!” Zephyr pauses and turns to Star Boy, flinging their arms into the air dramatically. “Be bold. Take risks. Be audacious! Find your people, and be a beacon so they can find you.” Frame 7: “So,” Star Boy says, lifting his hat off his head, “You're saying I shouldn't wear a hat...?” while Zephyr considers him thoughtfully.

Frame 2: “I SAY they're mine,” Zephyr continues as they resume walking, “but that's just because they're always around me. Really, they're their own and they do what they want. Mother Mine always said they were extensions of my personality which is far too big to be contained within one body.” Frame 3: “When I was young, some of the other kids thought they were fairies,” Zephyr says thoughtfully.

The world puts a lot of pressure on you to fit in and be 'normal'.” Frame 7: “But do you know what I think is far better than being normal?” Zephyr asks. “No, what?” Star Boy replies.

If this is a different bus stop, then how did you find me here?” to Zephyr, who gives finger-guns and says, “Coincidence! You'd be amazed how often they happen.” Frame 2: Zephyr continues, “They are far more efficient than a montage of someone waiting around for the right people and circumstances to converge at the same place and time.” Frame 3: “In this case, it makes a lot of sense,” Zephyr explains. “I routinely investigate as many bus stops as I can in search of interesting people.” Frame 4: “Today just happened to be a day when I was passing THIS bus stop,” Zephyr says. “And today I just happened to be here,” Star Boy says with understanding. “Exactly!” Zephyr says. Frame 5: Zephyr gets up from the bench and points away, saying, “I also happen to have the hat you dropped on the occasion upon which we last met. Shall we adjourn to my residence for the tea we never had?” Frame 6: “Okay,” Star Boy says, getting up and following Zephyr. “By the way,” Zephyr says, “last time I didn't get a chance to ask your name.” Frame 7: “Oh, well...” Star Boy says as the two walk, “stars don't really have names. But Dwyn calls me Sparkles.” “Sparkles, eh?” Zephyr says. “Not the best name, but you do seem to have an effect on my sparkles.” Frame 8: “Your sparkles?” Star Boy asks. “Yes!” Zephyr says, stopping to display the glowing sparkles that orbit them. “They really like you.

I thought it was the same bus stop.” Frame 7: “I mean, it looks exactly the same,” Star boy continues. “Ahh, yes, the old Larry Tesler Effect,” Zephyr says.

It creates a power surge that can destroy connected electronics, or even the entire system, if it isn't grounded properly.” Frame 9: “Ergo,” Dwyn continues, “with the power you produce, the solution isn't finding a way to contain it, but to discharge the excess!” “Isn't that wasteful?” Star Boy asks. “Oh, there's no need to worry about that,” Dwyn assured him. “This is science!

Frame 1: “Are you okay...?” Dwyn asks with considerable concern as Star Boy peeks out from under the blanket. “Of course!” Star Boy lies. “I mean, the game isn't working very well. I was hoping I could catch a glimpse of the photons before they got excited to see me, but they start dancing too quickly. So, I'm a little sad about that.” Frame 2: Ooookay...” Dwyn says, guiding Star Boy over to the couch and TV. “I think you've been spending too much time alone. I could probably use a night off from inventing, anyway. Come and watch while I play Draconic Era.” Frame 3: “...” Star Boy says, watching Dwyn play a game. “Is that dwarf named...?” “Yes,” Dwyn says. “I don't want to talk about it.” Frame 4: “So, Dwyn...” Star Boy says. “Yes, Sparkles?” “Remember when I suggested that maybe wearing a disguise would let me go out and be around people?” Frame 5: Dwyn sighs, saying, “I already told you it wouldn't work.” “But I-” Star Boy begins, while Dwyn continues over him, “I know you want to go out, see the world, and meet people, but you need to be sensible about this.” Frame 6: “I already-” Star boy tries, but Dwyn cuts him off, saying, “Firstly, you're a star. There's no way anyone could miss that, no matter how good your disguise is.” “What about-” Star Boy tries, but it's no use. “Secondly, even if you could find a way to pass for human, there will always be more observant people who will see through it.” Frame 7: “And you know what happens if you get spotted, right?” Dwyn presses. “Black suits and dark sunglasses,” Star Boy says. “We don't want that, do we?” Dwyn asks. Frame 8: “Of course not!” Star Boy says. “Exactly!” says Dwyn. “I know it's hard, but we have to keep you safe. So I don't want to hear another word about it, okay?” Star Boy gives in, saying, “... Yes, Dwyn...”

That was scary.” Frame 2: Star Boy enters the home, but pauses and looks back as he's passing the TV. “Oh no! I lost Dwyn's hat. I can't go back for it... She never wore it anyway. Maybe she won't notice it's missing.” Frame 3: Star boy stands by the bed, holding a blanket and saying, “Dwyn was right. I am never leaving this basement again.” Frame 4: That evening... Dwyn's eyes can be seen in a completely dark frame. “I'm home! Sparkles...? I didn't see him outside... Sparkles, where are you!?” Frame 5: “I'm right here,” Star Boy says, peeking out from under a blanket and shedding light everywhere. Frame 6: “What are you doing under there?” Dwyn asks. “Ok, I'm just, uh...” Star Boy says, “Playing with the photons.” Frame 7: “... Playing with photons?” Dwyn asks, confusion written on her face. “Yeah!” Star Boy says with a brittle grin. “Here, I'll show you!” Frame 8: The frame goes dark with a swish. Frame 9: Light fills the frame with another swish as Star Boy peeks out from under the blanket again with an unhinged smile, saying, “Dance, little photons! Dance!”

Frame 1: Star Boy, wearing a black bowler with a white band, sits at a bus stop with Zephyr. “I just needed a place to sit,” Star Boy says. Zephyr replies, “I was just waiting for someone interesting to talk to. I find you always meet the most interesting people at bus stops.” Frame 2: “Come hither!” Zephyr says, walking away and beckoning. “Let us acquire tea or somesuch.” “What about the interesting person you were waiting for?” Star Boy asks. “Oh, I think I have accomplished that particular mission.” Frame 3: “After all, who could be more interesting than a star in a hat?” Zephyr continues as Star Boy follows them. “You can tell I'm a star!?” Star Boy asks, looking alarmed. “It's kinda hard to miss,” Zephyr says. Frame 4: “But I thought the hat meant people couldn't recognise me!” Star boy says, coming to a halt. “Everyone ran away screaming about talking stars when I wasn't wearing the hat. Now, no one looks at me twice.” “Look,” Zephyr says, turning to explain, “People exist on a precipice, perpetually balanced on the edge of a fall from sanity.” Frame 5: Zephyr turns and continues walking while Star Boy follows. “Most of them will be afraid if they come across something they don't understand. However, if you take something inexplicable and make it even odder, they get so confused that they don't know how to react. So, they either pretend it's entirely normal, or they pretend it doesn't exist. Frame 6: “Think of it as a psychological self-defence mechanism,” Zephyr continues. “But you noticed that I'm a star,” Star Boy points out. “I said most people,” Zephyr says. “Do I look like most people?” Frame 7: “Hang on...” Star Boy says, stopping again with concern on his face. “If you can tell I'm a talking star, others might, too... That means... Dark sunglasses and underground laboratories! I have to go!” Frame 8: Star Boy fwooshes away on a rainbow, his hat falling to the g…

Frame 1: Star Boy, wearing a black bowler, sits on a bus stop bench, watching as the mysterious stranger in a cavalier hat sidles closer without looking at him, trailing sparkles. Frame 2: The stranger leans close to Star Boy and glances over, their sparkles lighting up a little as they get close, and conspiratorially says, “Nice hat.” Frame 3: The stranger scoots back to the other side of the bench as if nothing had happened. Frame 4: “Uh...” Star Boy says, while the stranger notices the glowing sparkles with interest, “Thanks. Your hat is very nice, too.” Frame 5: The stranger hops up onto the bench, turning to face Star Boy as they execute a mixed bow and curtsy, sweeping off their hat and revealing a mini top hat underneath, saying, “I'm Zephyr, they/them, the most extra person in the world, at your service!” Frame 6: Zephyr is seated again, just as face, now looking at Star Boy who says, “... It's a pleasure to meet you.” Frame 7: A bus pulls up in front of them as they stare silently at each other. The bus has and advertisement for Realest Realtors, saying, “If I can't sell your house, I'll buy it myself!” Frame 8: “You didn't get on the bus,” Star Boy comments after the bus has pulled away. “Neither did you,” Zephyr points out.

Frame 1: Star Boy peeks out of the basement stairway, then slowly emerges carrying a black bowler hat with a white band. Frame 2: “There,” Star Boy says, putting the hat on. “Incognito. Let's go.” Frame 3: Star Boy spots a person walking by and, trembling with a manically nervous smile, says, “Hello, fellow human!” The person just grunts. Frame 4: “Huh,” Star Boy says, glancing over his shoulder at the person who just walked past. “Well, it wasn't a scream. I think it's working.” Frame 5: Star Boy is wearing the bowler hat and walking through a crowd of disinterested people, thinking, “It's like I'm not even here. Is this what it feels like to be just like everyone else...? Frame 6: “It's kinda boring,” Star Boy thinks as he continues to walk through the crowd. “But it's also kind of nice.” Frame 7: Star Boy sits on the bench at a bus stop, saying, “Phew. Being around so many people is exhausting.” Frame 8: In a close-up of Star Boy and a mysterious someone else's eyes, we see a series of frames where the two keep glancing at each other, then away, when the other isn't looking, until their eyes meet for a moment, then they both look away. Frame 9: Star boy turns to face the individual on the other end of the bench, who is wearing a cavalier hat with a big feather and has three sparkles floating around them, sitting with their legs crossed and their back to Star Boy.

Page 11 of the Star Boy Origins graphic novel by StarBoyWebcomics posted November 9, 2025. Frame 1: Time break. Star Boy is lying in bed, reading Assault on Colossus, saying, “Apparently it's a good idea to take time off sometimes so you don't get burnout.” From outside the frame Dwyn says, “I don't need time off. I've almost got it this time!” Frame 2: Time break leading to a series of 3 explosions separated by time breaks featuring Dwyn with her hair blasted into spiky yellow form. Frame 3: Time break. Star Boy is watching Single Segment while Dwyn performs alchemy and says, “I never did watch all of that.” Star Boy suggests, “You could watch it with me.” “Maybe later,” Dwyn says. “I think I'm close to a breakthrough.” Frame 3: Time break. Star Boy stands outside the entrance to the basement, sighing and looking up at the sun. “I dunno, Cousin Sol. I miss being alone in space. But now that I've been around people, I miss that, too. How can I miss being alone and be lonely at the same time? And how can I feel alone even when I'm not alone? Why do people have to be afraid of me?” Frame 4: Star Boy's attention switches to a frog that has hopped into the scene. “Well, at least you aren't afraid of me. And Dwyn isn't afraid of me, either, even if she is busy all the time.” “Ribbit.” “I suppose you have a point. Still, it would be nice to have more people to talk to. I wish they would just treat me like a normal person.” Frame 5: Time break. Dwyn is putting the cuff from her much bigger machine on one of Star Boy's limbs, saying, “Don't worry, I'm sure it'll work this time!” Frame 6: Spiky yellow hair explosion. Time break. “This time!” Spiky yellow hair explosion. Time break. “I'm sure I've got it...!” Spiky yellow hair explosion. Frame 7: Time break. Dwyn walks past with a briefcase while Star Boy, watching TV says, “Hey, I just had a thought... All these superheroes put on a mask and no one recognises them anymore.” “So?” “So, maybe if I put on a mask or something, p…

Page 10 of the Star Boy Origins graphic novel by StarBoyWebcomics posted November 2, 2025. Frame 1: Time break. Star Boy is standing by Dwyn, who is attaching diodes connecting him to a laptop on a table. Beside the laptop is a strange machine with antennae, a screen, dials, switches, and a wire connecting it to a cuff. “It's done! Time for testing” Dwyn says. “What is it?” Star Boy asks. “First I need to get some new readings to compare to the old ones...” Dwyn says before answering, “In theory, it's something like a battery.” Frame 2: “It should allow be to collect and store some of your star energy so I can experiment with it,” Dwyn says as she works on the laptop. “Hmm... It looks like your readings are the same as before. That means you haven't built up more energy than you had the day we met. So we can rule out you storing up enough energy to escape Earth's gravitational field on your own.” Frame 3: “We'll just slip this on you, then I flip this switch...” Dwyn says, slipping the cuff over one of Star Boy's limbs and reaching for the machine. Frame 4: In a series of frames, the screen on the machine begins to rapidly fill up with yellow as Dwyn's smile becomes more concerned and surprised. BOOM! Frame 5: Star Boy and Dwyn stare blankly into space while the cuff on Star Boy's limb is attached to a shattered machine. Dwyn's hair has turned yellow and is sticking up in every direction, and the air is filled with clouds of smoke. Frame 6: “I may have underestimated the volume of energy you produce,” Dwyn says, bulling her hair back into a ponytail as the colour fades out of it. “It's like you've got a nuclear reactor in there!” “Well, I am a star, after all,” Star Boy points out. Frame 7: “Go back to your game,” Dwyn says, walking away. “It's back to the drawing board for me.” “Oh, goodie!” Star Boy says, heading in the opposite direction. “I just reached Fantasy City; I think I've almost completed the game!” Frame 8: Time break: Star Boy stands in the kitchen fr…

Page 9 of the Star Boy Origins graphic novel by StarBoyWebcomics posted October 26, 2025. Frame 1: Star Boy is sitting on a couch watching Physician What which could never be mistaken for Dr Who. Dwyn walks past with a stack of books titled Creativity, Science, and Physics. “If humans send things to space all the time, why can't I get back that way?” Star Boy asks. Dwyn replies, “Because it's too expensive for us normal people. Besides, we'd have to tell them you exist. If we did that, people in black suits and dark sunglasses would show up to take you away. You'd probably be locked up in some secret underground laboratory to be experimented on. Frame 2: Time break. Star Boy is peeking over the back of the couch to talk to Dwyn, who is hammering on an anvil, while a show called Paranormal (definitely not Supernatural) is on the TV behind him. “What does it mean when I can barely see anything on the screen?” Star Boy asks. “That's darkness, when no light is around,” Dwyn explains. “Darkness!?” Star Boy says. “Wow! I've never seen darkness before!” “... I wonder why that could be...” Dwyn mutters. Frame 3: Time break. Star Boy and Dwyn are playing a video game together. “Why are you away most of the day?” Star Boy asks. “I have to work so I have money to pay for the things I need to live,” Dwyn explains. “I'm a laboratory assistant. Still. I keep getting passed over for promotion. They say it's because I need more experience, but I'm pretty sure it's because I keep disproving my boss's theories.” “This capitalism system of yours is very flawed,” Star Boy comments. Frame 4: Time break. Dwyn is in bed, squinting and shielding her eyes from light as Star Boy walks by with an apple. “Sparkles! Could you turn out your light? Some of us are trying to sleep.” “Sorry, Dwyn, I don't think I can.” “Then could you at least hide under a blanket or something?” Frame 5: “You humans sure have a lot of superhero media,” Star Boy comments as Dwyn passes where he's watching TV. “Yeah, …

Page 8 of the Star Boy Origins graphic novel by StarBoyWebcomics posted October 12, 2025. Frame 1: Star Boy follows Dwyn to where she puts her laptop down on a table beside a chalkboard. “You have a lot of stuff in here,” Star Boy comments. “Yeah,” Dwyn replies. “I know it's a lot for such a small space, but I can't afford a bigger place. So, I try to be efficient with what I have. Some day I hope to live somewhere much bigger – with my own lab, if I can manage it!” Frame 2: Dwyn begins measuring Star Boy. “Alright, let's get your measurements,” she says. “Then I'll see if I can calculate your mass and gravitational force.” Frame 3: “How did you end up falling to Earth, anyway?” Dwyn asks, turning away to write on the chalkboard. “Oh, well, you know,” Star Boy replies. “I saw this pretty blue and green planet, and wanted closer look. But it was bigger than I thought, and I got caught in its gravity.” Frame 4: “Hmm...” Dwyn says, continuing her writing. “So the gravitational pull was already too strong for you. Let's see... F = G * (m1 * m2) / r^2... And over here we'll factor in that you lost maybe 80% of your mass on entry...” Frame 5: Dwyn turns to Star boy, looking concerned. “I'm afraid it doesn't look very good. I think you're too small to escape Earth's gravity now, even if we found a method to get you enough inertia. Seeing how you were pulled in before, you may have already been too small before you fell.” Frame 6: “Does that mean I really am stuck here forever?” Star Boy asks, tears in his eyes. “Oh, Sparkles, no!” Dwyn says, rushing over to comfort him. “At least, not necessarily. We humans are too clever for our own good, and we send things into space all the time. I'm sure that, with enough study, we can find a way to get you back where you're supposed to be.” Frame 7: “Come over here,” Dwyn says, smiling again as she leads Star Boy away from the chalkboard. “Where are we going?” Star Boy asks, still looking a little sad. “I think the internet may have b…

Page 7 of the Star Boy Origins graphic novel by StarBoyWebcomics posted October 12, 2025. Frame 1: Dwyn removes diodes from Star Boy while he looks at a computer. “This is incredible,” Dwyn says. You are producing a massive amount of energy, like I would expect a star to, yet it isn't being released in a way that harms the environment around you. I wonder if all stars are like this, or if you're an anomaly.” Frame 2: “We could ask my Cousin Sol,” Star Boy suggests. “Uh, who?” Dwyn asks. “Cousin Sol,” Star Boy explains. “Your sun. He's the closest star to us.” Frame 3: “Are you telling me that you're related to the sun?” Dwyn asks. “Well, no, not really,” Star Boy says, turning from the computer to face Dwyn. “It's more like stars consider ourselves to be distantly related because we were all birthed by the same universe.” “And stars can talk to each other?” Dwyn asks. “Of course we can talk!” Star Boy says. Frame 4: “You're saying you know the sun on a first-name basis?” Dwyn asks thoughtfully. “Well, no,” Star Boy admits. “I've never actually met him. I only know his name from your internet. Stars don't actually have names. We don't have time for them.” Frame 5: “... No time for names,” Dwyn says. “Right,” says Star Boy. “Because ususally we're moving so fast that by the time we finish saying hello we're on the other side of the solar system. Adding a name to that would be a little silly. Especially because we'll probably never see each other again.” Frame 6: “If I'm completely honest,” Star Boy says as Dwyn returns to cleaning up her laptop and diodes, “I don't even know if Cousin Sol identifies as a 'he'. It just seemed the appropriate choice aligning with your society's strange predispositions.” “If star conversations are so short, how can you ask Sol if you're just like other stars?” Dwyn asks. “I was thinking I could have a prolonged conversation if I could get into orbit around him,” Star Boy says. Frame 7: “Huh,” Dwyn says, her laptop now under her arm. “Tha…

Frame 1: Dwyn's eyes are all that is visible in a completely dark frame, saying, “Just wait there for a moment. I know it's bad design, but the light switch is on the other side of the room. Ouch!” Frame 2: Star Boy enters the room, lighting it up. He says, “Are you okay, Dwyn?” Holding her knee with a pained expression, Dwyn replies, “Yeah, I'm fine. It happens all the time.” Frame 3: “Woah!” Dwyn says, surprised as she realises that Star Boy is shedding the light filling the room. “You really brighten up a room. You'll never have to worry about electricity bills.” Frame 4: Dwyn leads Star Boy into her home, saying, “Come over here and I'll introduce you to the internet.” “Who is the Internet?” Star Boy asks. Frame 5: Star Boy is brought to a computer. Dwyn explains, “The internet isn't a who, it's a what. It's kinda like a faerie realm. It's full of strange people to whom you should never give your real name, there's an excess of inexplicable things, and there are parts of it you should avoid at all cost. However, it is also a repository for pretty much all the knowledge in the world, which means you can use it to learn all about Earth and the people here.” Frame 6: Dwyn approaches Star Boy with a pair of electrodes. Star Boy is at the computer saying, “Aww, look at all the kitties!” Dwyn says, “Yes, well, I was hoping you'd find something a bit more educational than pet videos. Don't mind me; I'm just attaching some electrodes to take some readings from you. Frame 7: Dwyn sits on the floor working on a laptop with wires leading to the electrodes on Star Boy, who is grinning at the computer singing, “Badger, badger, badger, badger...” “Like I said, inexplicable,” Dwyn says. “Just like you. A star should be hot enough to melt these electrodes, yet you're more like an ordinary person.” Frame 8: Star Boy stares at Dwyn with an expression best described as mentally scarred. “Dwyn...” he says. “Dwyn, the internet is a bad place.” “Yes,” Dwyn replies. “I did warn you.”

Frame 1: Star Boy, his cheeks stuffed with apples, follows Dwyn, saying, “Are there more apples on this not-so-little green and blue planet?” “We call it Earth,” Dwyn replies. “And yes, we have lots of apples. Many other delicious things, too.” Frame 2: “Maybe being stuck on this “Earth” isn't so bad after all,” Star Boy says. “Don't get me wrong,” Dwyn says. “Not everything here is good. The place is full of horrible people who just want to use you for their own ends, then throw you away once they're done with you.” Frame 3: Star Boy pauses and turns as a sleazy-looking person addresses him. “Excuse me! Did it hurt?” Star Boy replies, “Did what hurt?” The sleazebag continues, “Did it hurt when you fell from the heavens?” Frame 4: The sleazebag looks surprised and confused as Star Boy replies, “... Yes. Quite a lot, actually. Thank you for asking.” Frame 5: Sleazebag wonders, “Why didn't it work...?” as he turns his back to consult a book titled, “101 Pickup Lines That Always Work” Star Boy returns to following Dwyn, who is saying, “Are you coming, Sparkles?” “Yup! I'm right here!” Star Boy replies. Frame 6: Hey, that person wasn't afraid of me!” Star boy says with joy at the realisation. Frame 7: Don't get too excited,” Dwyn warns. Just because someone is willing to talk to you doesn't mean they're nice.” “You're nice,” Star Boy points out. Dwyn replies, “Well, yes, but not everyone is. I've lost count of how many people I thought were friends turned on me or abandoned me once they had what they wanted. You have to be careful who you trust.” Frame 8: Star Boy and Dwyn arrive at a house. Dwyn gestures to an open cellar door with stairs down into a basement saying, “Here we are! Home sweet home.”

Frame 1: Star Boy is talking to the person with glasses and a ponytail, who is saying, “What were the results you anticipated?” “Well, I was hoping to get back into space to continue my tour of the universe,” Star Boy replies. “I don't understand – I don't usually have this much trouble flying. I feel... depleted. Smaller than usual.” Frame 2: “Fascinating! Maybe you actually are smaller,” Glasses-and-ponytail says. “What? How?” Star Boy asks. “Well, meteoroids entering the atmosphere experience ablation, causing them to vaporise and fragment. Only 5-10% of them survive, and those that do lose up to 90% of their mass,” she explains. “Based on your size, I would estimate you only had a 20% chance to survive your descent.” Star Boy gulps. Frame 3: “Or maybe you just ran out of power,” she continues. “Come back to my place. You can rest and eat some food, and I'll run some tests. Perhaps we can find a way to help you.” “Oh. Okay.” Star Boy says. “Thanks.” “I'm Dwyn, by the way,” says Glasses-and-Ponytail. Frame 4: Star Boy is following Dwyn, who is singing, “Catch a falling star and put it in your pocket...” “Hey, Dwyn?” Star Boy says. “Yes, Sparkles?” Dwyn replies. “What's that think on your face?” Star Boy asks. “Hm? Oh!” Dwyn reaches up to touch her glasses. “These are my glasses. Some people need them to see better, but I just think they make me look smart. Mostly I wear them to distinguish myself from the background characters.” Frame 5: Oh. Then should I wear glasses too?” Star Boy asks. Dwyn thoughtfully contemplates Star Boy, who is a star with a face, then the ordinary stick-figure people in the next frame, before saying, “Nah, I think you're fine without them.” Frame 6: A group of stick figures are gathered around a pushcart full of apples. Frame 7: Star Boy and Dwyn approach the cart full of apples while all the other people run away screaming. “Do stars like a…
